Chapter 1040 - 1040 Lucky

1040 Lucky

Philand snorted and said to Sheng Xiao, “You guys are lucky to be able to persuade Lan Yuan to get over her emotional trauma and make her make up her mind to leave the town.”

The side mission was really related to Lan Yuan.

Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang didn’t know what was going on, so Sheng Xiao asked Philand humbly, “Mr. Philand, please tell us the secret.”

Nodding his head, Philand told them, “Lan Yuan is the only daughter of the Four-Armed Clan’s First Elder. Her father is a Prime Emperor powerhouse and a high-level leader of the Space Administration. Thirty years ago, his only daughter, Lan Yuan, was unable to recover from her emotional trauma. In order to avoid facing reality, she ran to the small town’s boxing arena to be an arena defender. Mr. Lan once promised that if someone could successfully enlighten his daughter and convince her to leave the town to start a new life, in order to express his gratitude, he would reward them handsomely.”

Then, Philand looked at Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang in amusement. He couldn’t help but marvel, “I really didn’t expect you guys to enlighten Lan Yuan.”

“I see.” Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang were lucky this time.

Seeing that Sheng Xiao didn’t intend to open the box, Philand couldn’t help but remind him, “This is a thank-you gift from a Prime Emperor. Why aren’t you opening it?” Philand wanted to see what the old man had given Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao was about to open the box when Yu Huang suddenly covered the box with one hand and said deliberately, “Brother Xiao, let’s look at it when we get back. There are too many people here. If there’s a good treasure inside, people might covet it.”

There were too many people here…

But other than the two of them, there was only Philand.

Philand was so angry that his beard curled up. He immediately waved his hand and scolded, “Get lost! Seeing you guys annoy me!”

As he chased Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao away angrily, he didn’t forget to remind them, “Get out of town after you get your identity card. This town doesn’t feed freeloaders!”

After chasing the two of them away mercilessly, Philand closed the door and turned around. Then, he shook his head with a chuckle. “Heh, they successfully enlightened Lan Yuan, so these two children can be considered to have established a relationship with the Four-Armed Clan.”

Although the status of the Four-Armed Clan in the Cang Lang Continent wasn’t as high as that of the War God Clan, they were still a super sect at the top of the hierarchy.

These two children had obtained a valuable connection before they left Ascension Town.

He only hoped that they could reach a higher position in the future.

After being chased out of the beef noodle restaurant, Sheng Xiao felt helpless when he saw the sly smile on Yu Huang’s lips. He asked Yu Huang, “Why were you teasing Mr. Philand?”

Yu Huang said, “I like seeing him frustrated since he’s very curious about the thing in the box, but he doesn’t know what’s inside.”

“Naughty.” Sheng Xiao poked Yu Huang’s forehead as he brought her back to the town.

As soon as they entered the town, they saw a burly woman with four arms walking over from the wide road ahead alone.

That person was Lan Yuan.

Lan Yuan had taken off the boxing uniform distributed by the boxing arena and changed into a loose black suit.

She was only burly, not fat. The black suit made her look even more mighty and strong.

Lan Yuan actually wasn’t ugly, but she had a boyish appearance. Her facial features were masculine, her lips were thick, and there were freckles on her cheekbones. She never wore makeup and was always bare-faced. Anyone who saw her would think that she was a man.

“Senior Lan Yuan.” Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang stopped at the same time and nodded at Lan Yuan.

After Lan Yuan stopped, she looked at Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao and asked again, “Are you two really husband and wife?”

Yu Huang smiled. “Of course.”

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao released their spiritual power at the same time. Then, they used their spiritual power to activate the marriage line in their bodies. A red marriage line appeared on their left ring fingers.

Lan Yuan looked at the marriage line that was connected to their fingers and said with a smile, “It seems like it was all a misunderstanding.”

Lan Yuan cupped his fists and apologized to Sheng Xiao. “I’m sorry, Sheng Xiao.”

Sheng Xiao wouldn’t hold a grudge against Lan Yuan over such a trivial matter.

“You’re not to blame for this.” If they wanted to blame someone, they had to blame themselves.

Lan Yuan recalled what Yu Huang had said when she left the boxing ring. She stared at Sheng Xiao inquisitively and asked with a frown, “When you fell in love with Yu Huang, was her appearance really disfigured?”

Sheng Xiao smiled and replied, “Yes.”

“Didn’t you feel disgusted and afraid when facing such an ugly face?” Lan Yuan’s question was very blunt, but it was also realistic.

Yu Huang was also looking at Sheng Xiao.

That’s right, back then, her appearance was indeed very ugly. Otherwise, when Xuanyuan Jing went to break off the engagement, he wouldn’t have been so shocked that he retreated when he saw her face.

“To be honest, the first time I saw her ugly face under the mask, I was a little afraid.” The scar under the mask was hideous and distorted. How could he not be afraid?

“But I only felt a little dismayed. I didn’t feel disgusted.”

“But she’s really too charming. Her soul is far more attractive to me than her appearance. Everyone’s feelings are different. Some people use their looks to measure love, some use money, and some use personalities. What I care about is her soul.”

“She has a resilient soul that I’m infatuated with and admire. How attractive is she to me?” Sheng Xiao looked down at Yu Huang and said bluntly, “If I’m a sunflower, then she’s the sun. Her soul constantly attracts me.”

These words made Yu Huang happy and a little bashful.

After Sheng Xiao finished speaking, his ears burned.

Lan Yuan understood what Sheng Xiao was trying to say.

She said thoughtfully, “Perhaps I can await my sunflower too.”

Lan Yuan patted Sheng Xiao’s arm so hard that Sheng Xiao’s shoulders sank. “Sheng Xiao, treat your wife well. I admire men and women who are devoted to each other. When I go back and chop off the heads of the Patriarch’s family, I will become the Patriarch and take charge of the entire Four-Armed Clan. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can look for me. I will help you as long as it is within my abilities!”

Then, Lan Yuan swaggered away, leaving Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao looking at each other in dismay.

“What did she just say?” Yu Huang asked Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao had a complicated expression on his face. He shook his head helplessly and said, “She said that she wants to go back and chop off the heads of the Four-Armed Clan’s Patriarch and his family.”

Yu Huang marveled, “Senior Lan Yuan is indeed bold.”

Once she set her mind on taking revenge, she would uproot their entire family.

That jerk had let her down, so he deserved death.

That b*tch had humiliated her and deserved to be killed.

Her parents, who had raised and indulged her, deserved to be killed.

Lan Yuan’s personality was extremely radical, but she was also a bold radicalist.

After successfully registering their identities, the staff of the hotel in town took away Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao’s keys and reminded them to leave quickly.

But Donor and the others had not completed the assessment, so Sheng Xiao and the others didn’t intend to leave for the time being.

The two of them had planned to set up a tent outside the town. When the warm and hospitable He Zhiqiu learned of this situation, he said, “There are many mosquitoes outside town. If you guys don’t mind, go to my dormitory! Although my dormitory only has one bed, we can sleep on the floor!”

Yu Huang also wanted to build a good relationship with He Zhiqiu and research what the Bone Nurturing Grass was all about, so she agreed.

On the way back to the hotel, they met the hotel manager.

The administrator was very beautiful yet chubby. She was called Auntie Fatty.

It was said that Auntie Chubby was a couple with Mr. Bai in the canteen.

Auntie Fatty stopped them and said sternly, “According to the rules of the town, ascendants who have successfully registered their identities can’t continue to stay in the public hotel.”

Auntie Fatty glanced at He Zhiqiu from the corner of her eye and said, “He Zhiqiu, you’ve spent ten years but haven’t been able to complete the assessment mission. You’ve been begging to stay here and we haven’t confiscated a single spirit stone from you. The Administration has already been benevolent to you, but you actually dare to bring the three of them to your dormitory to stay? What? You’ve been staying in this dormitory for so long that you really think it’s your own home?”

The administrator’s reprimand made He Zhiqiu, Lin Jiansheng, and the others blush.

That night, not only did Yu Huang and the others not manage to stay in He Zhiqiu’s dormitory, but He Zhiqiu was also chased out of the dormitory because he had violated the rules by taking in Lin Jiansheng and the others.
